Water Supply (Continued from Page One) Data Presented Crescent Lake Net inflow of 5,000 acre feet compared with av erage of 11,000 acre leet, or .4b per cent normal. Lake to peak at 35,000 acre feet. ' ; Sisters Irrigation district will get a little better than was actually received last year but will still be below normal supplies. The 700 acres under Plainvlew and McAllister ditches that get water about one year in three will again get only stock water this season. barring some brief high runoff periods, ferry predicted. The Swalley canal with old rights will get the usual adequate supply for its 4,283 acres. Must Watch Ditches All of the officials emphasized the necessity this year ot keeping distribution ditches clean despite labor shortages if maximum crops are to be produced from tne limited water supply. High snow cover and advance soaking of the watersheds were I reported relatively better for the) Ochoco and Crooked river areas than for the upper Deschutes. Lack of low snow and little early runoff into the reservoir compli cates' the forecast, according to LaSalle E. Coles, district man ager. Coles reported storage ot only 12,350 acre feet today compared with 23,700 a year ago. A fore cast of 11,000 acre feet of inflow yet to come was made, however, compared with only about 3,000 acre feet last year. ' If this amount is 'realized the 8,500 acres in the district can get delivery of two feet per acre which will mean a fair supply with careful use, Cole and county agent Gus Woods agreed. ; May Bo Better The 9,000 or so acres that ob tain water from unregulated streams ot the Crooked river wa-1 tershed should get water supplies at least equal to last year and possibly a little better, it was agreed. . . sou moisture in the farming lands is fairly good over most of the area, especially in northern Deschutes and in Crook county, thoush sod lands are dry In the top six inches and will have to be irrigated before plowing for later potato planting, several men re ported.

Odell creek Flow of acre feet, 91 per cent average and 1 start as .early as yast year, how- about 5 per cent above last year's flow. Tumalo creek Predicted flow of 32,000 acre feet, or 75 per cent of average but slightly better than last year, .;. Squaw creek Predicted flow of 34,500 acre feet, or 73 per cent of normal and 1 per cent above last year's forecast. ..Crane Prairie Reservoir has 32,300 now and is expected to peak at not to exceed 3fa,000 acre feet. Wickiup Reservoir now has 67.200 and will go to 68,000. Prob ably be used only to supply 5,000 to 10,000 acres in north unit late this season because of delay in construction work. r . aiui , .Holdover Lacking i; THe effect of these amounts of available water on the projects supplied is surprisingly similar, the irrigation and reclamation of ficials agreed. Perry said that the 6,700 acres in the Tumalo project j will be able to use creek flow to ; June 25 and lake water for the i next 60 days, with nothing but ' small creek flow after. Sept. 1. 1 Lack of holdover available last , year necessitates closer figuring, he said. i The big Central Oregon district, supplied from Crane Prairie reser voir, will have only about 80 per j cent of the water available last , year, O. E. Anderson, district manager, estimated, though per formance of Little river is some what of a puzzle. The Central Ore gon district, Arnold and Lone Pine are all expected to pull through in fairly good shape by liberal use of Cline Falls water later in the season.
